The Kickstarter and Berlinale Talents network partnership provides campaign support to Berlinale Talents’ alumni network of more than six thousand directors, writers, producers, and film professionals who choose to launch Kickstarter campaigns. Alumni can engage and work directly with Kickstarter’s film team to receive mentorship and support for film projects launched during the partnership.

After the festival, Kickstarter will also host quarterly online engagement events to work with the Berlinale Talents’ extensive film community. In addition, a dedicated page on Kickstarter presents prime projects in development.
